> I just wonder if Elecrolysis will ever arrive. It seems like I've been waiting for it forever. It's here already, in Nightly: https://nightly.mozilla.org/ https://nightly.mozilla.org/ (more info: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Electrolysis https://wiki.mozilla.org/Electrolysis). I haven't really had the problem you're talking about in Firefox as it is, but you can try it out and see if Nightly is any better. Keep in mind that Nightly is slower overall than Firefox, because it has a number of debugging flags enabled that impact performance. Obligatory disclaimer: Nightly has lots of bugs and quirks compared to Firefox, so it should not be considered indicative of the normal Firefox experience[0]. Also, many extensions have not yet been ported (which is why it's available in Nightly for developers before hitting Firefox). [0] That said, it's pretty damn stable. I'd be using it for my daily browsing except that I can't live without Vimperator, which hasn't yet been ported to e10s: https://github.com/vimperator/vimperator-labs/issues/211 https://github.com/vimperator/vimperator-labs/issues/211

I know it's in Nightly, but wasn't it in Nightly 3-5 months ago, too? Shouldn't it have moved to the "next" development version by now, like Aurora or whichever is the next "more stable" one, if Firefox follows a 6-weeks development cycle?

  Not every feature can be completed in a single six-week train, especially one as complex as rewriting huge chunks of a browser that was not initially designed with process separation in mind. :) That said, we should have a go/no-go on Monday for uplift with Firefox 40. We're getting Very Close Now. :)

    If we do the uplift, I believe the plan is also to hold there until we clear out a bunch of less-critical, but shipping-blocking bugs. So it might be on Aurora for a few releases.
